Protruding ears can be more than just a cosmetic concern; they can deeply affect one’s self-esteem and psychological well-being. Children with prominent ears are especially vulnerable to bullying and may grapple with self-consciousness regarding their appearance. Adults, too, might feel limited in hairstyle choices and earring selections due to ear aesthetics. Fortunately, there exists a safe, effective, and permanent solution: otoplasty, commonly referred to as ear pinning. This transformative procedure can help individuals of all ages not only enhance their appearance but also experience a profound boost in self-confidence and quality of life.
Knowledgeable staff and I feel a great attention to detail for every visit. They are not just professionals, but are experts in treating sensitive skin issues. One of my favorite detail is that although I was seen by multiple medical staff for combined assessments, but always only treated by one staff — the same one — so my progress is clearly followed.

Monica is an excellent service provider. I received my second Botox application along with a Face Filler service. As a first-time user, I was highly apprehensive about receiving these services, but Monica was fantastic throughout this process. She patiently gave critical details, and after three visits, I confidently went for it. This experience is well worth it; I look great, and I look forward to my further services.

Who is a good candidate
for Ear Pinning?
Otoplasty extends its transformative potential to children as young as seven and adults in good health who seek to enhance the appearance of their ears. Younger patients frequently experience a remarkable boost in self-confidence, while adults may seize the opportunity to elevate their facial aesthetics and broaden their hairstyle horizons, including the freedom to confidently wear a ponytail.
Following your otoplasty, you can anticipate some swelling and bruising, temporary effects that naturally diminish over a few weeks. After one week, makeup can be applied to conceal any residual bruising, allowing you to return to your daily routine with newfound confidence. To facilitate the healing process, it is advisable to limit strenuous physical activity for one to two weeks after the surgery. The journey to optimal results continues with several post-operative appointments, with the initial one usually scheduled for the day following your procedure.
Otoplasty is a precise and individualized procedure, tailored to each patient's unique ear shape and size. Dr. Bolden will discuss the specific treatment plan and techniques during your consultation.
